Phuket to Railay Destination Reviews

JC
Organised and comfortable trip across. Ended up stopping at Krabi due to low tide (I believe), was excellent as we got a ride about Krabi to drop off other guests, then to Ao Nam Mao pier and long boat across to Railay Beach! Only rated 4 here so I can write review/add comments. 😃

The booking was smooth. After we arrived, they took out the luggage while we waited to load it onto the boat. It was a bit scary for me because all my belongings were in my carry-on bag. I think it's a normal procedure, but at first sight... I mean, even on a plane, I can keep it with me. The luggage was at the front of the boat, and it wasn’t secured in place or anything, so sometimes it slipped because of the speed. The ride is pretty rough due to the waves, so if you have back problems, it’s better not to go.

We arrived more than 1h later than expected and it would have been even more if it wasn’t because I paid extra money for one of the journey to go with a private boat. A journey that by the way was not explained in the PDF’s itinerary that was previously sent to me. Other than that the trip went good. People very helpful and vehicles were clean and comfortable.
